Qmail is non-free in Debian's eyes(only source of qmail can be distributed) and I believe they are trying to not be hypocritical. -- Brian - "Never criticize anybody until you have walked a mile in their shoes, because by that time you will be a mile away and have their shoes." - unknown Mechanical Engineering[EMAIL PROTECTED] Purdue University http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis -
